    Re: Cold room insulation

    Personally no but i wouldn't really suggest it either. Wood is quite permeable, & wood doesnt really contain any insulation properties. Stick to what you know and use the proper insulation.

    thanks

    Well as some one who has been around a bit in this business the only time I remember seeing plywood used was about 30 years ago when a company called BUSS made apple stores from bonded plywood to polyurethane panels, that is plywood on both inner and outer skins.
    Don't know if that helps you but yes it has been used but not as an insulation just as a structural skin for the cold store.
